- 6 cups (1-inch) cubed sturdy 100% whole wheat bread (about 12 ounces)
- Cooking spray
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/3 cup chopped shallots
- 2 (8-ounce) packages presliced cremini mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
